The capital, Fangfei Hot Spring Manor, oh no, it should be called the Royal Manor now. Since a few months ago, Mrs. Wang donated this Zhuangzi to the imperial court, and the father-in-law of Ping'an, who was suspended in the inner government, officially took over this Zhuangzi, and told the master behind him to change this majestic name.

And Ping'an, as a small steward eunuch beside Concubine Zheng Guifei, has become the soil emperor of this Zhuangzi, while constantly squeezing the tenants on the Zhuangzi, while stubbornly holding all kinds of income on the Zhuangzi - Niangniang and the princess have said that as long as he takes care of the Baicao Garden, the rest, hehe......

Speaking of which, Ping An really wants to thank that Mrs. Wang for taking care of this Zhuangzi so well before. Needless to say, the out-of-season fruits and vegetables watered by the hot springs on the single village made him a lot of money. Although part of the money has to be returned to the palace, part of it has to be honored to Princess Jingwei, and the rest is his. However, with him guarding Zhuangzi, how much income does Zhuangshang have, is it not he who has the final say?

It's only a few months, Ping An has saved a lot of money, if it weren't for the fact that he was tied to the house by the third princess a few days ago and humiliated, and he raised the general manager of Ping, who was white and fat and round like a rice ball, he really felt that his little life was as happy as a fairy.

Thinking of the evil aura exuded by the third princess Zhou, Ping An couldn't help but shudder, and even the retired women's army stationed in the manor was not very pleasing to the eye.

Well, no, everything in the manor is good, but these stinky and hard-tempered men are too eyesore, and when he returns to the palace to deliver medicinal herbs in two days, he has to give his mother a breath.

After taking a nap peacefully, he ordered someone to carry a low tree in the shade of the huā garden, and his slender eyes swept over the women's army standing at the door, calculating with bad intentions.

"Oh no, father-in-law, it's a big deal!"

A withered little guy with a thief's eyebrows and rat eyes stumbled over to the bottom of the tree, panting and shouting.

"Fart, Mr. Ben is in charge" Ping An squinted his eyes and was thinking about something, when a few screams suddenly came from his ears, so frightened that he almost rolled off the dwarf, got up from the dwarf in embarrassment, raised his hand and gave the little guy a slap, and said a vicious lesson.

"Oops!" The little guy was beaten and staggered two steps, covering his red and swollen cheeks, and then he remembered that this dead eunuch didn't like people to call him father-in-law, and he couldn't be wronged in his heart, so he said bitterly: "The little one should die, the little one should die, and Mr. Ping forgives his sins!" ”

"Hmph, there are no rules" Ping An flicked his sleeves, sat on the couch, and said angrily: "Say, what happened?" ”

"Hui, Hui Chief, there is an accident in the Baicao Garden, and the herbs that should have been ripe not only do not grow well, but instead, instead—" The little maid saw Ping'an's eyes widen, and he looked like he was about to eat himself, and he swallowed his saliva in fright, his voice became quieter and quieter, and he stammered and shrank there as a quail.

"Rather, what? You useless thing, tell me! ”

When Ping'an heard that there was something wrong with the most important Baicao Garden, he was taken aback, stood up quickly, grabbed the hem of the little girl's clothes, and asked sharply.

"Some of the leaves are yellow, some of them are bad, some of them are bad, and some of them are ...... Father-in-law, spare your life, little ......" The little guy was lifted up by the peace like a meat ball, his feet off the ground kept kicking, his neck was stuck by the placket, his face was flushed, he rolled his eyes, and he was about to be strangled to death by Ping'an.

When Ping'an heard this, his eyes straightened, and his hands slowly loosened, and his mind kept flashing the reprimand of the mother and the advice of the princess, as well as the little palace maid of the Danfang who was killed by the rod a few days ago, the eyes that were not blind, and there were large patches of blood......

As if he had thought of something, Ping An kicked away the trembling little guy in front of him and ran desperately towards Baicao Garden.

Wang Qifang didn't know about the Baicao Garden, and even if she knew, she would have nodded knowingly-the Baicao Garden was originally built to cover the space, if she hadn't often watered it with the spring water of the space, those herbs transplanted against the sky regardless of region and season would have died long ago, let alone have any magical effects. Now that it is separated from the watering of the spring, those herbs can last until now before they have problems, which is already to give peace face.

At this time, Wang Qifang was chatting leisurely with Aunt Tang's mother and daughter, drinking tea and eating snacks.

"Hehe, my cousin is overrated, what I am, I don't know myself." Wang Qifang picked up the white porcelain teacup, blocked it in front of her, covered a trace of playfulness in her mouth, and said: "We are all relatives, that is, a family, I am not afraid of losing face, I have nothing to say, Tianzi No. 9 Confucian merchant nameplate was originally my ex-husband Zhao family's second young master, but now it is given to me, but it is only for temporary safekeeping, and when Xiaoxin grows up in the future, he will still pass it on to him." ”

This is not a lie, Wang Qifang has long thought that everything she got from the Zhao family will be left to her three children.

Because it was from her heart, Wang Qifang said it very calmly, and Rao is Tang Yunqin didn't see any clues, only to see her pause, then smiled slightly, and said, "So that's the case." By the way, isn't the little new brother starting a business, and my cousin is going to let him do business in the future? ”

Tang Yunqin heard Wang Qifang say that there was a gentleman in the back carriage who was placed in the carriage of Xiaoxin'er, who was said to be a supernatural and talented man, she had never paid attention to these and didn't care, but the second brother listened to her cousin-in-law's words, and she ran to visit the gentleman on the spot. Now, he is even more in Mr. Li's carriage, respectfully talking to Mr. Li.

Wang Qifang smiled, it was not easy for her to discuss this topic with a little lady who had not yet left the cabinet, she just said lightly, "What will happen to the little new brother in the future, it is not easy to decide now, just recognize a few words." ”

How many words do you recognize? Aunt Tang still looked smiling, but she secretly said in her heart, if she knows a few words, she still needs to ask the dignified Duke Xie Yuan to be a gentleman? It seems that her niece and daughter are really as shrewd and capable as the letter written by the wife of her in-laws.

Wang Qifang didn't want to talk about herself all the time, so after getting up and pouring a cup of tea for her aunt and cousin, she asked with concern, "Is my cousin fourteen this year?" Hehe, my cousin was born in a scholarly family, has good looks and is proficient in general affairs, but I don't know which Xiaolangjun is cheaper? ”

"Cousin~~"

Tang Yunqin pretended to be ashamed, half-hanging his face, covering the light under his eyes.

"Oh, Qi Niang is your cousin, they are all your own sisters, what are you embarrassed about" Aunt Tang patted her daughter's arm dotingly, turned her head and said to Wang Qifang with a smile, "Qin'er decided to be a relative last year, and her husband's family is the Zheng family, a Confucian merchant who is No. 6 in Tianzi in Beijing, and she is a family member who walked out of Wufu with the noble concubine Niangniang." ”

Speaking of this, Aunt Tang seemed to suddenly think of her niece's discord with the Zheng family, and hurriedly added: "However, my ancestors are Confucian businessmen, and I don't have much contact with Zheng Guozhang. ”

Qin'er said that the marriage between the Tang family and the Zheng family can be known as long as anyone with a little bit of knowledge can know it, and there is no need to hide it from Qi Niang. Besides, she didn't lie, although her in-laws and Zheng Guozhang are relatives of the same clan, they are far away.

It's not that Zheng Guozhang doesn't look down on his in-laws, but in fact, when his great-grandfather was a Confucian merchant in the shopping mall, Zheng Guozhang's grandfather was still doing small business in an unknown corner. If it weren't for Zheng Guifei, who was a palace maid, she climbed onto the dragon chuáng and gave birth to a prince, how could Zheng Guozhang's branch have the current scenery.

Qin'er is right, although the in-laws are Confucian businessmen, they are also a century-old family, far more profound than those upstarts.

"Tianzi No. 6 Confucian merchant? Can you walk out of Master Zheng San from Fanyang Zheng's family? ”

Wang Qifang tried hard to think about it, and a vague shadow appeared in her mind, she nodded, well, to be honest, Fanyang Zheng's family is also a branch of the Zheng family, and the relationship is far away, but it can also be regarded as a famous family, far more expensive than Zheng Guozhang's branch. The marriage between the Tang family and the Zheng family can be regarded as a good match.

"That's right, it's the second son of Master Zheng San."

Aunt Tang has been staring at her niece with a good eye, and she was relieved to see that Wang Qifang's face was not unhappy, and she was relieved, after she saw Qi Niang, she was still a little worried that Qi Niang would misunderstand that the Tang family was involved with Zheng Guifei, which would affect the relationship between relatives.

"Well, if it's their family, they are worthy of their cousin" Wang Qifang smiled even more, took Tang Yunqin's hand affectionately, looked up at Aunt Tang, and said, "When will you get married?" I put makeup on my cousin. ”

So that's the case, Li Jingtian once said that among the Confucian merchants in Tianzi, the Zheng family and the Cui family are qualified and capable of competing for the position of president.

Tang Yunqin is the future daughter-in-law of the Zheng family, and it is common sense for her to pay attention to the dispute between the presidents of the Confucian Chamber of Commerce.

Although Wang Qifang doesn't like the ancestors of the Tang family who sell their fame and reputation, but they still have a good impression of their aunt, her brother has sent her a letter, saying that she borrowed the treasure box from her aunt again, and extended the huā pattern at the bottom of the box.

"Don't worry, we'll talk about it when we settle down." Hearing Wang Qifang's words, Aunt Tang was completely relieved and began to talk about other things: "Oh, it's been more than ten years, and I can finally see my eldest brother again." ”

has a brother-in-law who is an official in the capital, and his son's career path will be smoother, and he will have a better status in his in-law's family. The Tang family has been dormant for hundreds of years, and there are no connections in the DPRK and China. This is also one of the reasons why she doesn't want to have sex with her niece's daughter.

"My mother often said that my two uncles were very good people, but unfortunately I was young, so I only went to celebrate the birthday of my third uncle, and I have never asked my uncle and aunt to say goodbye."

Tang Yunqin also quietly breathed a sigh of relief, just now she deliberately introduced the topic to the Confucian Chamber of Commerce, in order to take the opportunity to talk about her relationship with the Zheng family. lest the cousin and the Zheng family compete for the position of president in the future, and then know about this relationship from other people's mouths, the cousin and the Tang family will inevitably have suspicions.

As the old man said, the Tang family has just come out of the mountain, and there can be no half-point difference, Mrs. Zhongyi and the leader of the Chivalry League are not just titles, even if the forces behind them cannot be used by the Tang family, they cannot become the resistance of the Tang family. @。
